Installed a DeeZee tailgate strut. Took 6 minutes and works great. Also, picked up our Christmas tree today, and finished our lights on the house. . I will post up pictures and specs of my new wheels and tires once they arrive and I get them installed.

Went back to stock headlights. Going to open up my modified pair and customize them some more. Going to blackhouse some of the interior and add projectors to the high beams. Will update with pictures once I get that ball rolling.

Those BR wheels are going to look awesome. I see you're still riding on factory suspension - I'll let you be the guinea pig for stock height 285 Wildpeaks then they the P or E ones?

Wildpeaks are good tires. My 265/75R16 set is surprisingly quiet and smooth, not too far off from the Fortitude HTs.

Yeah, not lifting it at all. They are the LT 4 ply. They don’t seem much bigger than my factory 275/65/18’s....

I went to the store and picked out what I wanted. They had their 20% off sale over Black Friday weekend.
